My Journal
June 23, 2010
Today much of what I have learned these past two weeks came together. My goals and activities were clear when completing PowerPoint. While it is important that I practice use of technology, my understanding is connecting and I believe I will be abe to incorporate the video camera in my teaching with my new class this fall. Adding videos to the learning process will provide another way to extend student understanding of objectives .I am grateful I had this opportunity to experience such a hight level of projects and activities when implemeting video storytelling technology. While my Egypt project is simple, I feel that I will be able to build on its structure and do more during the year.
